The $1200 Cyclekart The Porsche Experimental

[@Ch-ui6mw]

Kendall has fantastic taste in color!! The black and silver with the red and white seat....best looking cycle kart I've seen!!!

[@vancemacd6315]

I can get over how perfect they pook and apear to ride. Such nice work.

[@kevinbaker6168]

Cool! Good to see Kendall and you working on it together. I think if a kid can work on a project like that you develop skills, knowledge and interests that will last thier life.

[@dennisthomas8597]

I agree Kevin. Kendall is showing interest in things mechanical and she also has a flair for drawing artwork. I would like for her to be a maker of things. You are right, she can use these skills her entire lifetime. Thanks for watching.

[@nbandpinportugal]

One of the most elegant cyclecars I've seen.

[@RDarrylB]

Greetings to you and Miss Kendall from Kendall, NY! Nice to see a simple kart, and the wooden construction. I am only building in my head at the moment, and I tend to over-complicate things. This might bring me back in line. Lightness = speed (or quickness). Thanks!

[@StephenCameron]

Cool to see cyclekarting taking off. Back when I was building mine (2009 - 2012) I felt like I was the only one. Just wish I had a little more money stashed away so I could travel around with it to events.

[@dennisthomas8597]

Hi Stephen, I remember watching your video of you building your car in your driveway when I was designing my first Cyclekart Old #27. That was 2012. You had the only video I could find about a cyclekart construction at that time. I believe that there were only about 30 Cyclekarts worldwide at that time. Things have sure grown. I still hold out hope that you can join us at one of the events at some point.

[@idiotluggage]

Really cool to see Kendall doing all of the work.

[@SgtBrewdawg]

This is very cool and inspiring. I love the simplicity and workmanship. Thanks for sharing and your parade post was also very enjoyable. Ride on!! 👍

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Dennis, it is great that you and Kendall worked on her car together like that, she looked like like she had a blast working on the kart and than driving it.

[@fireh8r]

Great Video Dennis! Thanks for sharing.

[@dennisthomas8597]

I appreciate that you take the time to watch my videos, thank you!

[@jasonyoungokc]

I don’t know who todo-gnocchi is, but that CK is SWEET!! Love the look! Dennis, I came out to your place and rode the ol’ 27 around your lot about 8 years ago. Great time. You had 27 complete and the mono car was about ready for paint. Still trying to finish mine. I raced to get it driving, had a kid, and now 6 years and three kids later it is still in the exact same condition! Hoping to get this house built and moved in this summer. Then I’ll be doing a take down and rebuild. I want the differential and hydraulic breaks on the rebuild. Need more room in the cockpit as well for my little passengers! I’ve been watching every video and keep them coming. Huge inspiration!!

[@dennisthomas8597]

I remember that Jason! I also remember watching your video of your Cyclekart outing. I am glad you still have you car and plan on the upgrades which are well worth it. I built the BMW for my wife and Kendall to ride in side by side so I understand your need to make the cockpit bigger. Good to hear from you and thanks for following my videos!

[@gerard4444]

One lucky girl, you must be a great dad,👍👍

[@jasonyoungokc]

Maybe you can do a video documenting the progression of your cyclekarts and compare upgrades, front suspension styles, rear axle styles, engine placements (in front vs behind the axel), steering setups, build materials…etc. I would love to here your thoughts on all of the different techniques you’ve used/learned. Thanks, J

[@dennisthomas8597]

Great idea Jason, there has been a steady progression for sure. I'll start pondering how I might put it all together. Thanks

[@chuckb9867]

Great craftsmanship here

[@dennisthomas8597]

Thanks Chuck!

[@danbarone7643]

I absolutely love that you got your daughter involved in Cyclekarts.

[@thomashowlett8295]

A nice Stevenson Formula Cyclekart! Too many "cost no object" Cyclekarts out there, but I know that's human nature in racing...winning.

[@dennisthomas8597]

I agree Thomas. The bodies can get pretty elaborate and can cost a few bucks. We are ok with that. What we don't want builders to do is spend money on big engines to go faster. We have a gentleman's agreement that we won't do that. So far everyone is adhering to the agreement and we are keeping speeds and spending in check. Also there are no prizes or trophies or recognition for winning. Thanks for watching!

[@meradu2]

Very nice work I’m definitely in I need to start building one of these soon Ty for sharing

[@Biokemist-o3k]

Fantastic!! I ma out in Pennsylvania and I am starting to work on a Morgan three wheeler replica and just found cycle karts. I definitely want to join in the fun with the cycle karts...

[@aleksandrssliseris373]

Hi😊 i learnt from your video a lot if about this beautiful cars. Keep doing this stuff 😉 greetings from Eastern Europe 😊

[@Ch-ui6mw]

LOVE the Porsche 356 grille!!

[@nothingelsetolose7661]

Thank you so much for sharing this project it was wonderful to see the end results and I learned so much about cycle carts which I have taken an interest in as well as Vintage rc balsa kit airplanes funny as a younger man I never Had much of an interest in models and although I did have a go kart growing up and worked on it this has sparked my interest in and go karts, cycle carts and airplane models

[@domenicozagari2443]

Once you get going a centrifugal clutch is good enough :)

[@profetasilasdavi1329]

great Car

[@dennisthomas8597]

It has been a good Cyclekart, thanks for watching.

[@profetasilasdavi1329]

@@dennisthomas8597 you are welcome

[@autofiend3785]

The young lady has great taste in anime 'My Hero Academia' is a fantastic show. Also great seeing kids getting into making things and working with their hands.

[@drlong08]

I love that he literally used a grill for a grille!

[@randytinney6854]

Very nice vid.

[@EMNM22]

Nice job! I think it needs a rear bumper.

[@russellrader8786]

Thanks for making the video. Do you know of any cyclekart groups in South Carolina?

[@userjarabecko]

Maaan real nice 😌😆 wish my dad made one for me

[@funnerthanbefore4947]

Awesomeness

[@dennisthomas8597]

Thanks FTB!

[@pudnbug]

On the plywood box, are the joints reinforced? Or is it just carpenter's glue? Thanks.

[@funone8716]

Go ahead, hide a turbocharged flat 12 in there, I DARE you

[@TreDeuce-qw3kv]

👍👍

[@huzaifashahid]

Why you are not building cycle karts??

[@dennisthomas8597]

Even though I have 5 Cyclekarts I am going to build another very soon. Thanks for watching

[@jerryjohanan4511]

That what I like to build

[@dennisthomas8597]

Very simple construction and a good design for a first Cyclekart. By changing the grill you can make it look like any number of inspiration cars.

[@CiceroFSilva-ik1nn]

Muito bom

[@JohnPaul-jg7es]

Where would you use this?

[@romanromanyk4322]
